The spoiler thing is true, you have to import a save descended from an ME1 run where you did the opposite It’s probably like that because the opposite is significantly harder to achieve

Philippe posted:The online system is purely collaborative and it's harder (though not impossible) to troll your fellow Porters. At launch there was a problem with the one guy who lived at the bottom of a box canyon, it was pretty common to go visit him only to find the box canyon so full of abandoned trucks that you couldn't reach the door. I don't think it was intentional, just that whenever someone parked a truck there it would get synced to the world server and anyone who went there later would find all the trucks of everyone who had been recently. Eventually they patched in a button to delete other people's trucks

Philippe posted:Yeah, the true final boss of Death Stranding was "now go all the way across the map and encounter all the threats again", or possibly "now go across the starting map with no equipment and a fragile-rear end box on your back that can't get wet while there are jellyfish everywhere". I remember this not being very hard because I had built up a lot of the road and the bike with infinite boost was fast enough to just ignore the BTs

Blaster bolts travel slow enough that you can see them move across the screenCJacobs posted:Edit: Nearly everyone they fight is going to have a gun because of the blaster arms race. Therefore, blocking lasers by sound alone is the very first thing a Jedi learns, that's what the goofy training helmet is for.  actually it's the force allowing them limited prescience so they can move to deflect the shot way early, and furthermore

The Dead Rising achievement is named “Zombie Genocider” There’s an achievement in a different zombie game, IIRC one of the Left 4 Dead’s, for killing 53,595 zombies It’s called ”Zombie Genocidest”

Nameless Pete posted:I love that the Riddler puzzles in the Arkham games are not presented as some sort of real-world problem to be solved. Usually devs try to include the plot conceit that this color matching minigame is somehow breaking the encryption on an ancient alien supercomputer or whatever, but here you have to solve puzzles because you are being harassed by an insane puzzle nerd. There's even NPC dialog about how they keep stumbling over weird question mark trophies and almost getting killed by question-mark-themed deathtraps

The best sword thing in Ghost of Tsushima is you can swipe on the touchpad to perform a cool flourishing sword sheath the instant you kill the last guy, before he even hits the ground The worst sword thing in Ghost of Tsushima is that the last guy is then crawling around on the ground dying and you have to redraw your sword, kill him, and sheath it again

I liked the bit in the Tomb Raider Powerwash Simulator campaign about that. "You're probably wondering about the T-Rex. Yes, it's real. Don't ask."

ilmucche posted:I just got to the grave hoard in horizon zero dawn. Still working my way through it but I like that there's all this optimism early but right st the entrance you find the log of the soldiers making a last stand when it's all failed and one of them goes "do you think 30 seconds will be enough for (the scientist lady) to finish zero dawn?" and the rest of them crack up. Then everyone dies That's why people say "gently caress Ted Faro" but not why people say "gently caress Ted Faro"

WD:L is a set of pretty great open world toys (the ridable cargo drone is amazing) wrapped around a character swapping gimmick that doesn't really add much and a cowardly desire to portray near-future Britain as a dystopian hellhole without once mentioning Brexit because video games aren't political

It's almost a whole genre now where every last facet of the entire possibility space they present is considered part of the value and something not to share with anyone. Outer Wilds. Frog Fractions. Probably others

Yeah, most puzzle games have zero replay value once you have the solutions, but not all of them make absolutely everything you do, down to the most basic structure of the world and how you interact with it, part of the puzzle Like, no one considers it a spoiler to say that Tetris is about rotating blocks or Myst is about a series of islands. But people still try not to mention that, say, Outer Wilds has a time loop

Captain Hygiene posted:That reminds me, I actually did have this experience too! I never saw too much about the movies ahead of time, outside of a few catchphrases with no context, and it totally got me when the terminators meet up at the mall. It was great, it's easy to see how telegraphed it is on a rewatch, but my initial assumptions were too strong the first time around. It was kind of a weird situation in the contemporaneous mediascape too. Arnold was a relative unknown in the first movie, so he could be an icy killer robot and nobody would have a problem with that. But by the second one he had become one of the biggest movie stars in the world on the back of the whole 80s action movie phenomenon so he was now part of a formula and a gigantic Brand. Nobody wanted or expected him to play a villain any more even though the movie tries to pretend there is some uncertainty there for as long as it can James Cameron did an absolutely masterful job communicating that this guy isn't the icy killer robot you remember- by having him crash a biker bar butt naked and beat the poo poo out of everyone in it and take all their stuff. Those are not things a good guy is supposed to do! But it still gives you the sense that things are different from the first movie

CJacobs posted:The rail shooter spinoff of Until Dawn that retells the story in metaphor via hosed up carnival ride is buck wild and the widest genre shift I've seen. Dead Space Extraction adapted fantastically to the limitations too. Yeah Rush of Blood was way better than it had any right to be But it’s not exactly a retelling, it’s what’s happening inside Josh’s head while he’s turning into a wendigo
